| TALEGGIO |
 Description:
Hailing from Italy's
Lombardy region, this rich (48 percent fat), semisoft cheese is made from whole
cow's milk. Its flavor can range from mild to pungent, depending on its age.
When young, Taleggio's color is pale yellow and its texture semisoft. As it
ages it darkens to deep yellow and becomes rather runny. Taleggio is sold in
flat blocks or cylinders and is covered either with a wax coating or a thin
mold. It's excellent with salad greens or served with fruit for
dessert
